Tonight the doorbell went off , my wife goes to the ticket window.
There was a man and several young boys outside.
"Tell you what, I have a deal for you, $50.oo and we all go in."
"That's not a deal for us."
"I was here 3 months ago and I only paid $5.oo a person to get in."
("Now he's just lied to me." Jessica thought)
He kept on being this stupid even after he pulled his all-powerfull $50.oo bill from his wad of money.
Our ticket window takes up very little space from inside of the house so I was standing aways away hearing his fruitless inane banter.
"I can't do this at the gas station when I buy gas." Jessica said.
"Now Jim was making loud fart sounds . "She added.
(This was to let Jessica know I wasn't interested in doing a deeply discounted tour and really , the kind of a person he sounded like, I didn't want him in the house for the next 90 minutes either.
Many years ago, being very desperate for business I would sometimes submit myself to such people and once inside my house most of them made my life miserable and alot of extra work. It's that whole attitude-thing.
He even went so far as to plead, saying it was 2 or 3 of the kid's Birthdays(He's already lied once , remember.)
I like the fact that all those kids were standing very close to him to hear both halves of the conversation so then the kids know why they didn't get a tour, your Dad is a professional cheapskate and an amateur idiot.
I "love" it in October when this style of idiot shows up with his "deals". I politely ask him to please step aside, then I lie and tell them I'll talk to them "later", later when I don't have a parking lot full of customers willing to pay full admission and not carp about it.
I guess he was just putting on a show for his kids?
That was the only show he got here tonight.
Do you other guys see this guy darken your ticket window on a busy night in October?
